Obama in Pictures

A new book follows Barack Obama's senate career in pictures.

'The Rise of Barack Obama'

Photographer Pete Souza has covered Barack Obama's rapid rise to political superstardom since the day the Illinois senator was sworn into office. In his new book "The Rise of Barack Obama," Souza shows never-before-seen pictures of Obama with his family. The photos give an intimate look at the man who is on the verge of making history by becoming the first African-American nominated by a major party for the presidency.
